-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The essential points for victory are:
to chant daimoku
with the same resolve as our mentor,
to have momentum and tenacity
to be victorious as a "leader,"
and to develop the solidarity
that protects and upholds justice and truth.
Let's together create a golden history
of kosen-rufu's cultivation and development!

"I will be the pillar of Japan. I will be the eyes of Japan. I will be the great ship of Japan. This is my vow, and I will never forsake it!"

"We of the Soka Gakkai have inherited from the Daishonin the openheartedness to embrace everyone, no matter who they are and the deep compassion to continue chanting for the happiness of each person with whom we share a connection.
"The Daishonin declared that both the diverse individual sufferings and shared common sufferings of all living beings are his own sufferings (cf.OTT, 138 and WND – two, 934)."
